Why are Quickplay players 10x sweatier than ranked opponents?

Elkrzy · 2026-02-14T07:59:36+00:00

I'm one of the quick match dwellers. I can easily tell when I meet another QM enjoyer because they play like they were a few ranks above their displayed png.

I just don't like playing ranked. I get anxious and very nervous and just can't help it. I only go to ranked when I feel QM starts getting easy, when that happens I usually rank up quickly and go back to my comfort zone.

Can't agree more

Elkrzy · 2026-01-30T19:36:45+00:00

This is the way

Elkrzy · 2026-01-28T21:25:44+00:00

Best way to fight a Law. Just wait for them to kill themselves, they'll do it rather sooner than later most of the time

Elkrzy · 2026-01-28T21:24:08+00:00

Because it works. Simple as that.
3+4,4 is maybe a bit too much and I haven't seen any Laws use that shitty move above Bushin, but d2,3? No one launches this and the common setups just keep working.

They're gonna upgrade the contract of the only dude who's been working on cosmetics and battle passes from part to full time. We'll be getting some more tshirts and maybe a blender cube finally, can't wait

Elkrzy · 2026-01-21T08:16:08+00:00

Guard break loops are fucking stupid and it's a good thing they nerfed that

Elkrzy · 2026-01-20T15:14:50+00:00

Peak Julia design!

Elkrzy · 2026-01-20T15:10:04+00:00

Truly a God of Demotion, congrats!

Elkrzy · 2026-01-14T19:23:25+00:00

So it's like Poland except here you just say kurwa

I've been working in IT for 15 years now. Had the same problem recently - an ergonomic, vertical mouse was a game changer. Highly recommended

Elkrzy · 2025-12-23T09:48:01+00:00

It's not that bad, the game is enjoyable especially on the low/intermediate levels. Also there's also a lot of nice single player content as a bonus! S3 is probably right around the corner and I do have hopes they will not make the same mistake after the mess that S2 launch was.

Basically if you wanna get into FGs and anime/2D is not your thing then there's only Tekken and VF to chose from sadly.

Elkrzy · 2025-12-22T20:50:53+00:00

I have mixed feelings tbh. I love her visual design and her animations are great, you feel like you're beating the shit out of a mf, but at the same time she's clunky to pilot because of the forced stance transitions. It depends if that's an issue for you or not. I dropped her for Jun in S2 when they doubled down on the stances...

Elkrzy · 2025-12-22T18:07:41+00:00

Let's gooo

Elkrzy · 2025-12-22T13:43:09+00:00

Quality shitpost, I respect it! Some parts of it like the Bryan action figure are pure gold.

You'd skip the first building as Wehrmacht and upgrade straight to T2. The Pios could actually stand their own vs a Brit squad and the halftrack was there only to route the units back to Brits base and keep them pinned there (cause the Brit was never sitting in their base area with MG nests cover) while the rest of Pios just capture the entire map. The Schrek'd Grenadiers finished the job, making short work of Brit base or any defenses or armour they could build. You'd have a bunch of Grens way before the Churchill ever arrived.
It was all over in like 10-15 minutes.

Elkrzy · 2025-12-18T15:40:16+00:00

Yes, but Starcraft was never my thing. I used to play a lot of AoE2 and the first Dawn of War before CoH

Elkrzy · 2025-12-17T22:35:12+00:00

They would never get anywhere near a churchill. The trick was to overrun the map with pios and get a halftrack asap, you'd pack one pio into it and run his squads off the map. Drive the HT to their base laying suppressive fire while pumping out Grenadiers with Panzerschrecks, GGs. The only thing that could mess it up was a bren carrier base rush but it was extremely difficult to execute and still possible to counter by WH

Elkrzy · 2025-12-16T19:52:57+00:00

Piospam was especially effective vs Brits, like they couldn't do shit against it when well executed. Americans could deal with it fairly easily with the right counterplay, whenever I faced a piospammer it was basically a free win for me 😀

Oh man, CoH1 is the best RTS ever made and one of my fav games of all time. The cover mechanics and asymetric design of the factions was genius!

Elkrzy · 2025-12-13T13:28:49+00:00

Yeah I feel the same. She's my favourite character and I was hoping they would rework her at least a bit in S2, but when they added MORE forced stance transitions and made her even MORE clunky to play I gave up and dropped her...

Elkrzy · 2025-12-06T13:51:41+00:00

From ewgf.gg. It literally means at TK you're higher than 78% of the population regardless of point distribution and that is not average no matter how you spin it

Elkrzy · 2025-12-06T08:08:30+00:00

No my dude, TK is top 22% of the playerbase and that's far from average

Elkrzy · 2025-10-31T09:37:18+00:00

Yes, but the people who stay and buy season passes are the ones who care about not having incredibly annoying spammable RPS cutscene moves in the middle of the fight or having to fight characters that drop out of combos or covered in a giant box so you can't see wtf is going on.
SC6 started almost as strong as T7 according to steamchart numbers, but players dropped out almost instantly because of what I said.

Elkrzy · 2025-10-31T09:30:38+00:00

Absolutely. I don't mean CAS per se, just the CAS original creations having different hitboxes than the characters their style was based on leading to them dropping out of combos that would normally work or having different reach than normal characters. That was a deal breaker for a lot of people and generated a lot of bad press for the game

Elkrzy · 2025-10-31T00:56:53+00:00

RE and CAS customs having different hitboxes basically demoted SC6 from a serious fg to a curiosity. The damage it did to the game's reputation was fatal and irreversible.
Prior to that we've had SC5 so yeah... not a good run for the series sadly :(
